Colt South East Asia: Project management is our speciality

May 2015

The Colt South East Asia team operates in a highly diverse and competitive environment, serving a vast region of very dynamic markets. We asked Sharan Pinto, who leads the team, what are the strengths that make it stand out from the competition.

“First of all we have excellent products and technical expertise: these provide the foundation upon which we offer our customers strong project management capability. This is what really distinguishes us from other players in the market.

“Typically our project managers each have around 10 years’ experience. As a rule they will hold a degree in their field of expertise and are certified to BCA’s Workplace Health and Safety Guidelines.  

“Our core approach is to work closely with the client and to ensure that the execution of any project is brought to a satisfactory completion despite the most demanding schedule. This means that our project managers work round the clock when it is necessary to meet a client’s urgent requirement. The scope of our work includes engaging with Government authorities to process necessary approvals, and given our in-house knowledge and expertise advising our clients to provide solutions on site as and when they arise. Lastly, we give our installation sub-contractors good technical training so as to ensure the system installed complies with industry standards.

“The way we work side by side with our clients results in long term relationships overall – this is proven by the fact that over 50 percent of our client base are repeat customers!”

Head of Operations Antony Selveraj, who has over 20 years’ experience in the industry, highlighted the strengths that he believes make his team outstanding:

“Communication is the key to a successful coordination between our project manager, subcontractors, and the client – and, ultimately, to the successful completion of the project. This is an area we put great focus on, and our close-knit team excels in establishing clear and regular communication with all the parties involved to drive the project’s execution forward smoothly.

“We encourage our project managers to take on any challenge, getting exposure to all types of situations. This means they are constantly learning and bring to any project they undertake a breadth of experience that will enable them to provide value added technical consultation to our clients.

“With our team of project managers we have the ability to take on the most varied projects, even in the most demanding sectors such as the petrochemical, pharmaceutical and food industries.”

The Colt South East Asia team has a real enthusiasm for the business and every member will go out of their way to ensure the client is fully satisfied throughout the project and with the result. The amount of repeat business is testament to their ability to create a strong relationship with the client that is built on trust.
